Fantasy Impact:
"It was fun.. wasn’t difficult," Guerrero said. “I feel quicker on all aspects of my game, right now... defensively & offensively.” This is fantastic commitment from the soon-to-be 22-year-old. It's no secret that Guerrero arrived to summer camp out of shape last year, but he still played in all 60 games and made it a point this offseason to come back at a reduced weight. He certainly accomplished this goal, though he still needs to work on hitting fewer grounders to reach his full potential. Guerrero is once again being draft early this spring, so fantasy managers will need to be prepared to pay up if they want a shot at his upside.
